Bible Black is probably one of the most famous hentai anime out there on the market. Coming from a successful H-game franchise, the anime almost religiously follows the story of Satanic cult activity, sex, and high school life that is seen in the video games.
I have to say that I am reviewing Bible Black as a hentai--not as a regular anime. Hentai have their own criteria they follow, and they are so vastly different from a typical anime that it is not practical to review it in comparison to a mecha anime or a seinen anime, for example. So my ratings are all based on how good of a HENTAI is Bible Black.
The story is possibly one of the most intricate you'll ever see in a hentai. It has a point, believe it or not, and a careful plot with twists and turns that it follows. Bible Black follows the story of a young man who attends a high school where a book of dark magic spells is uncovered. With this book, his wildest dreams are fulfilled, but at a cost--evil has been unleashed, and it is coming after him. The story is definitely interesting, from the supernatural elements to the high school interactions of Minase and his classmates.
Art in this hentai truly impressed me. I was thinking I was going to see another botched, cheap-looking, rushed hentai with sub-par animation, but I was completely taken aback. Bible Black looks good. The characters all look distinct from one another, and the animation was pretty good too. The sex scenes in particular are animated well, and you can tell effort and energy and money was poured into making this a good-looking hentai. It certainly was refreshing to see sex scenes that didn't use the same clips over and over again to draw out the scene. Kudos to the animators.
The sound was also good. It had a lot of dark, creepy music, and it certainly needed a strong score to deal with the dark magic, Satanic scenes where there were some truly chilling moments.
Despite its impressive technical details, Bible Black's weakness falls on the characters. You can all claim that it's just a hentai and characterisations don't have to be good, but I have seen the rare few hentai that DO have good characters in them, so there isn't any excuse. Minase's probably the strongest character in the hentai, not because he's the guy who gets all the girls, no, but because he actually has some minute character development. He gets influenced by this evil book--his attitude changes, his outlook changes, and even the way he interacts with people changes. That to me is a decent attempt to make his character more intricate. However, the supporting characters were all pretty much flat. They were your typical bullies, best friend type, evil people, rapists and rape victims that you see in hentai. Some were interesting, and you may even sympathise or like some of the background characters, but they undergo very little deep character development.
This is (literally) one hell of an interesting and entertaining hentai. It will suck you in from the first episode right down to the deranged, sinister conclusion.
Bible Black had been a hentai that, to me, was the most controversial to be released given its religious themes and general content. I went into it hesitantly, wondering what sort of horrors awaited me, but curiously enough, what I found was a hentai with an involving storyline, decent characters and very good art.
Definitely a must-watch if you're a hentai fan. read more

What?! A hentai with a PLOT?! The world is coming to an end!!! Oh, no, we're just watching Bible Black.
The first time I heard of this anime, people spoke of it with hush-hush tones and said it was beyond words and they can't even begin to describe how devious and 'o_O' it was. So then I watched it and I was like, 'Wtf? Was that person a noob?' because Bible Black is actually not as incredible as it was made out to be, but it was actually quite decent.
I suspect it is a little racy because of the Satanic worship and some of the torture, but I have seen Nightshift Nurses, my friends, and I shall never be the same ever again. My poor fabulous brain...
So the story is good, the art is actually very good, the sound is so-so, the characters are bland. Really, they're all bitchy or assholes or victims--that's not a personality.
Bible Black is revolutionary. It's probably one of, if not, the most popular hentai franchise out there. And I must say, it actually stacks up there to compete with regular anime. It only remains unfabulous because of certain one or two things. But other than that, watch this, it's good. read more

made by the same company, same general style of animation. both have intricate plots. bible black a little bit more so, discipline lacks both the magic and the occult.

Both involve females with male genitalia. Bible Black involves magic with Tokubetsu Byoutou involves medicine.
